For debugging the new views and tabs, you might want to give the
debugging perspective a try.

Hi Jurriaan,
I think you're on the right way with the implementation. I don't have
any examples for custom folder/document actions at hand at the moment,
but it was done before, in a similar way.
Furthermore, you can use the overriding mechanism in the CMS to replace
certain pipelines in the CMS by your own implementation, see this page:

Subject: [HippoCMS-dev] Adding a video tab
Hello all,
I want to extend the CMS (Release-CMS-v6_05_01) with a tab for adding
video meta data. This extension is similar to the imageset functionality.
The video xml's will be placed in /default/files/default.preview/video.
I have managed to create a tab which shows the contents of the video
folder. My next step is to add a folder action, which creates a new sub
folder.
In the component.xml of the video perspective, the following view is added:
<view id="videofolderactions" label="FolderActions"
className="VideoFolderActionsView" appUrl="/explorer/actionsform"
bootParam="/video/" style="actionsview"/>
In actions.xml (extensions module) I have added:
<ActionList resourceType="videoCollection">
<ActionGroup name="actions.folderactions.label" i18n:attr="name">
<Icon>folder_open</Icon>
<Action>
<ID>documents_makeCollection</ID>
<Label><i18n:text>actions.folder.new</i18n:text></Label>
<Icon>folder_new</Icon>
<Param>
<ID>name</ID>
<Label><i18n:text>actions.folder.new.name</i18n:text></Label>
<Datatype>string</Datatype>
</Param>
</Action>
</ActionGroup>
</ActionList>
I have found out that workflow2actions.xsl translates the path to the
resourceType. The xsl file is part of the editor module.
Is it possible to extend this mechanism, without creating a patch? If
not, how do I create a patch?
Thanks in advance.

Jurriaan van den Bosch
